A new federal directive by Mehmet Oz allows the sharing of Medicaid applicant data with DHS effective immediately, rescinding previous “interagency integrity” firewalls. This forces mixed-status families into an impossible calculus: access life-saving medical care or remain invisible to enforcement.

“Since 1998, independent researchers have conducted more than 40 high-quality studies involving over 5.6 million people. The conclusion is clear and unambiguous: There’s no link between vaccines and autism." -Dr. Susan Kressly, AAP President on recent changes to the CDC's website

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Ah yes, "We the Democrats" is definitely what a Republican official in a Republican administration meant when she said "your government is failing you...we have failed you"
Mike Johnson immediately tries to clean up for Brooke Rollins: "When she says 'we have failed you,' she means 'we, the Democrats,' okay?"

$40 billion dollars is the size of the entire NIH budget.
Trump says his $40B bailout for Argentina's failing libertarian economy is "not gonna make a big difference for our country."

Really?

Imagine if we invested those billions on healthcare and housing for Americans, instead of bailing out Trump's pals abroad.

BREAKING: By an apparent 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court halts an injunction that had prevented immigration agents from racially profiling Latinos in central California.

Sotomayor, dissenting, says the decision is "unconscionably irreconcilable with our nation's constitutional guarantees."

📣 IMPORTANT: I can't stress this highly enough: 23.4% is the weighted average premium increase for *currently unsubsidized* ACA enrollees only.

For most of the > 90% who currently receive federal subsidies (~21M Americans, myself included) the NET rate hikes will be higher than 23%. MUCH higher.

MAGA/MAHA froze billions of $ of research funding to universities, cut $2.3 billion in new grants from the NIH by May, ended publicly funded mRNA vaccine R&D, fired ACIP & installed a group of anti-vaxxers/vaxx skeptics, made huge staff cuts at CDC/FDA/NIH

But Bhattacharya says WE are the problem🤨
Bhattacharya towards the end... "There's a faction of people who have been trying to essentially paint Donald Trump and Bobby Kennedy as anti-science and they have used transition stuff that has happened at the NIH to cause political turmoil.”

Yeah, THAT'S the problem...
